KAILA + JP
We are a husband-and-wife photography team who’s been capturing weddings together for years. We’ve been high school sweethearts and best friends since 2009. I (Kaila) got my first DSLR in 2012, shot my first wedding in 2013, and went full time in 2015 after graduating college. We got married in July 2018, and exactly one year later, I finally convinced JP to leave his desk job in finance and join me full time so we could be together every day, traveling the world and documenting love stories all over the globe. Since then, we’ve photographed over 200 weddings worldwide.
Working side by side allows us to capture the full rhythm of the day, from quiet, in-between moments to the energy unfolding all around you, without feeling rushed or staged. We bring calm + joyful energy, gentle guidance when it’s needed, and plenty of space for you to just be present on your big day.
We believe wedding photography should feel honest and effortless, but still thoughtfully composed.
We guide when it helps, step back when it matters, and always keep the focus on how your day feels. Emotion comes first, but composition matters too. Light, movement, and framing are all considered so your images feel intentional without ever looking staged.
We also set aside time for something a little more elevated. Editorial, high-fashion-inspired portraits that feel timeless and iconic giving your gallery a perfect mix of raw emotion and editorial style.
We’re not just two shooters, we’re a husband and wife team who have created our own seamless rhythm on wedding days to capture your day effortlessly.

“I'm a firm believer in complimenting people. If I like something, why not say it out loud to bring a smile to someone else's face and help them recognize their own beauty. Photography allows me to tell someone how beautiful they are without using words. Honestly I think we’re all cute and quirky, and my camera helps me show others how to embrace how fearfully and wonderfully they were made by a perfect Creator. We are here to serve you and to allow you to feel like the beautiful person you are!”
